    No mounting brackets?

    Am I right? The Oneida dust Gorilla does not come with mounting brackets or a stand? If not, anyone have pics of installation? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance-- Ben

    Ben:

    Check out what I did. I found a broken canopy frame in the trash can at a park, like this one(the frame not the park ):

    and I used it to make this stand for my cyclone:

    The best part is the broken frame came with all the needed connectors!!

    It is increadably steady and the cyclone does not move. I did mount the motor to the wall with a 1-1/2" angle bracket I welded up.

    aside from being very sturdy, this frame is also very light so it it is easy to move the cyclone when needed.
    Silence is golden but duct tape is silver.

    That looks great and free too! Is that a CV DC though or a Gorilla? I can see that making the brackets/stand is no big deal but it seems odd that they are not provided. I woudl think that mounting a DC to the wall would transfer a lot of noise and vibration so maybe the stand is a better way to go.

    I'm sure there is tons of info on this here already, should have looked first. Thanks Julio.

    There are several mounting options for the Gorilla...you specify what you want when you buy and the appropriate cost is added to your order...

    The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...
